Yes and yes.
use butter flavored crisco You could use margarine. http://www.ukfoodies.co.uk has a delicious cookie recipe, this recipe has butter, but you could substitute it with margarine.
Vegetable oil and butter are two types of shortening. All fats and oils are shortening, and can be substituted for each other, but this will affect the flavour and texture of the food, as some shortenings have stronger and different flavours, and also have different melting points.
But yes, in fact if you substitute shortening for butter in the tollhouse cookie recipe they will come out big and stay soft.
Use the same amount of butter as you would shortening. In bread, a tablespoon of butter can be used instead of a tablespoon of shortening. The same amount of canola oil is even healthier.
I always use butter. You may want to adjust the salt in the recipe if not using unsalted butter.
Shortening or lard could be substituted without any major change in the recipe.
yes but you have to use less butter than the normal amount of oil
Yes. You can substitute apple sauce in an equal volume for any dessert recipe that requires a fat like butter, margarine, oil, or shortening. It is almost the same and can be very healthy.
yes it will curdle. High Ratio Shortening contains emulsifiers that allow it to hold a large amount of liquid without curdling. do NOT substitute regular shortening or butter into a recipe that specifically says High ratio or emulsified shortening.
Yes, but the flavor will be altered and not have the butter flavor from the butter flavored shortening
Butter!
